Jammu and Kashmir's Leap of Faith: A look into the VALLEY'S transcendence into the prism of 'ABROGATED' Article 370
J&K's special status under Article 370 was abrogated in 2019, leading to significant achievements and a decline in terror activities and stone-pelting incidents.
Public and social life in the region, especially in the Valley, has returned to normal without disruptions after more than three decades.
The number of civilian lives lost due to protests and stone-pelting incidents decreased, with no such incidents reported in the last four years.
The abrogation of Article 370 resulted in a considerable reduction in terror activities in the Valley, as well as a decline in the recruitment of locals into militancy.
Security forces' operations resulted in a notable drop in the number of militants killed compared to previous years.
Infiltration attempts have been foiled, and the number of locals joining militancy has decreased, leading to a decline in the number of active militants.
Restoration of administrative control has encouraged substantial investments, with proposals worth over Rs 80 thousand crore under process in the Union Territory.
The restoration of peace has boosted tourism in J&K with an expected record of over two crores tourists this year
